THE STORY
The pretty streets of Kanazawa are like a time capsule, transporting you back to a simpler time, when the city’s Higashi Chaya neighborhood was a bustling entertainment district that is still widely known as “Little Kyoto.”

The lovely ryokan Kanazawa Maki no Oto fits seamlessly into this milieu. Opened in 2015, this small establishment is the perfect place to relax and enjoy a more tranquil pace of life amid a bounty of beautiful things and get a taste of authentic traditional Japan. It is also an excellent base for exploring the surrounding neighborhoods, with their beautifully maintained historical houses, traditional arts and handicrafts, and gardens.

Maki no Oto Kanazawa differs from its rural cousin, Maki no Oto Toyama, with its old-style traditional urban vibe, which neatly matches the atmosphere of the surrounding district. The building has won an award from the city of Kanazawa for architecture and design that enhanced the beauty and authenticity of the famous old town. Some of the older locals said that seeing it took them back to an earlier time.

DINNER
Auberge Maki no Oto Kanazawa believes that meals while traveling are an important time to nurture precious memories of the guests’ trip and their souls.

The ryokan would like you to enjoy the best dinner trip in Kanazawa, in addition to their Japanese restaurant, Higashiyama Wakon, so they have formed close partnerships with famous local restaurants outside the ryokan to offer the guests Kanazawa's exclusive gourmet cuisine in a variety of genres.

Auberge Maki no Oto Kanazawa is an unconventional auberge. In addition to the chefs at Higashiyama Wakon, the chefs at each famous restaurant love the local area and entertain guests with exquisite dishes.

BREAKFAST
Breakfast is only served in Western style. The parfait-like salad with seasonal fruits and vegetables is beautifully presented on a plate, and the freshly baked croissants are crispy and have a distinct aroma of Japanese wheat. The handmade roasted onion sauce helps you enjoy the delicious taste of vegetables, which is just exquisite.
